Jillian Acock, 3/04: Hey
ya'll, I just wanted to write and let you know what is going on
in my corner of the world. Last May (2003) I graduated from Florida
State University, with a degree in Child Development. While
at Florida State I played for four years in the marching band,
The Florida State University Marching Chiefs. I really miss playing
my horn right now. Every year at this time I start thinking about
the experience that we all had, and how much we saw and learned.
It still boggles my mind! Right now I am teaching elementary
school back in my hometown, Fort Walton Beach, Florida. If
any of you are ever in the area feel free to email me. I
hope all are well! jillk410@hotmail.com
